The last few days we are being spoilt with afternoon temps of 26/27 deg and dry and sunny. Arillas is a very quiet place to be , right now , as much is closed.
Beach Point not open at the moment and do not know their future plans. Armourada tells me they will not re-open yet... but there is always an option for a lunchtime beer.
(Sneak in, help yourself and leave money on table)
"Beach Kostas" only open from Wednesday to Sunday so Sidari trips planned for Mons/Tues.
Of course the Louvros coffe shop is always there but no Akrotiri as ...... I am told many of it's young Greek customers do not have a "jab". Very hard for owner Nickos to ask for papers from good pals.
Talking of which... I am sure you have read the snippet that Geoff posted.
https://www.keeptalkinggreece.com/2021/11/06/greece-new-restrictions-covid-measures-requirements-full-list/Many "non Jabbed" will feel the impact of this and the Police are in full force to enforce the rules.
Last week, In Baze Bar, Sidari, we had a visit and papers had to be shown.
Very polite Police and gave me the chance to show my super new resident permit.
( I showed it and said "Byee Boris" which gave them both a smile.
However , interesting is the news report that only 50% of the police have been vaccinated. - Hmmmm!
So, today at "Beach Kostas" there were at least a dozen people outside having a bevvy. I call them the "non vac crowd" but respect their opinion. A mixture of Brits/Greeks plus a German, I think. However they all live here and rules are rules so they suffer and have drinks delivered out to them. Equally we have others still waiting for a jab and have to pay every 48 hours for a negative test. They can sit inside.
(If it is left very late to organise a prick or two then it can be an expensive time.)
and moi?? - Not entirely convinced about these vacs but I am off, tomorrow morning, for a booster jabbie.
Very easily organised with the Arillas Chemist and Agros Health Centre awaits for me.
(Probably pranged in the right arm as I can use it as a good excuse why my afternoon darts are terrible)
Sorry guys , .. I did not mean to write a book here but these fingers have a mind of their own.
Time to feed the cats and Wegg still in the UK. So, a curry is calling out to me.
(We have an upmarket cooker and I have to show my vaccination report or it will not switch on)
Electronic Robots waiting for your next move... Donja just luvem?
Cheers
